I can't possibly imagine paying any amount to see Justin Bieber, but I do see your point.

Oh, I agree.  Obviously, I don't care for his music.  But there's always been something that I didn't like about the guy.  I couldn't really put my finger on it, other than that he has that look that just screams, "I'm a little prick".  Maybe that's not far off base.

Seriously though, you know he's not the only one doing crap like this.  I'll bet just about every big star out there does the same thing.

Shoot, Robin Williams did it at the Peace Center in Greenville, SC.  It appears to be rampant.

Well I think if your not a female aged 14-18 this is exactly what you think.    Trust me it's not just you.

Yeah they all want to make a buck.  With musicians and mpegs and so forth it's about the only way they can.   I personally think entertainers are overpaid anyway, so....

Completely agree...but that would include Bieber and Robin Williams, no?

I once met a guy who had hung and partied with Robin and some other people in upstate NY.  A very unlikely guy to do so, an overweight obnoxious grad student in engineering, but definitely a guy who would do drugs.  Anyway, he said that Williams bogarted all the drugs even though he was the wealthiest guy there by far.   Based on my general impression of him, sounds about right.   

Who knows if it's true...but that could explain why he needs money, lol.  He blew it all up through his nose.
